Cherish The Light Years

Cold Cave

Amoeba Review

04/05/2011

Cold Cave’s sophomore album is a tour-de-force of pounding synths and soaring romantic melody that picks up where 2009’s Love Comes Close left off. Influenced by New Order, late-’70s Scott Walker and Depeche Mode, with the sensibilities of artists like LCD Soundsystem and The National, the Philadelphia trio takes synthpop to stentorian levels while restoring darkwave to its original form.
